Chapter 4 [Daizong]
The foul-smelling black blood splattered instantly, only to disappear in the next instant.
The monster's corpse and the blood it had spilled also disappeared.
Light Yagami's corpse reappears.
He lay on the rain-soaked ground, as quiet as if he were asleep.
Xu Yuan plopped down on the ground.
Leaning against the wall, he was panting heavily.
His left shoulder was contorted in a strange way, and a piercing pain was emanating from it continuously, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.
He turned to look at Light Yagami.
Under his increasingly blurred vision, Light Yagami's corpse transformed into countless tiny specks of light, gradually dissipating into the air.
He was banished back to his original world.
At the same time, a spatial ripple that only Xu Yuan could see slowly dissipated not far away, and some distorted scenes nearby began to return to their original state.
That was the spatial node that appeared this time, and the world overlap caused by the spatial node.
Unfortunately, the Death Note has also disappeared.
At the start of the battle, Xu Yuan tried to put it into his inventory, but failed.
In order not to affect the battle, I had to leave it on the ground.
And now, it has disappeared as well.
Perhaps it's because it doesn't belong to this world.
【Ding--】
[Spatial node has been processed]
[Mission Objective: Light Yagami]
Target quantity: 1
[Target Strength: Mortal → Tier 1]
[Task Difficulty: Low → High]
[Execution Result: Target successfully driven out; penetration of the Death Note world significantly reduced]
[Task Rating: B]
[Mission Rewards: 400 million yen, 400 points, 3 gold treasure chests, Mount Tai, 2 silver treasure chests]
[Severe host injury detected]
[Do you want to spend 30 points to repair?]
"Yes."
Xu Yuan was waiting for this.
If he weren't so weak, he would have cursed.
As the system repair function was activated, a warm current appeared out of nowhere within his body.
Then it turned into wisps of thin mist.
It gently enveloped him from the inside out.
In that instant, the excruciating pain that had made it hard for him to breathe vanished.
Xu Yuan immediately felt relieved.
He could clearly feel his body being repaired.
It felt warm and cozy, with a slightly tingling sensation; it was quite comfortable.
After resolving his injuries, Xu Yuan turned his attention to the settlement interface, which was still open.
"System, how was this task evaluated?"
The task evaluation is determined comprehensively based on "target strength", "target quantity", "task difficulty", and "execution results", and is ranked from lowest to highest as follows: D, C, B, A, S, SS, SSS, EX.
"Do the rewards differ significantly depending on the evaluation?"
The system will award varying amounts of money, points, and treasure chests based on different evaluations. The following are the basic rewards; the final rewards will be adjusted according to the actual situation.
[D-rank rating: 100 million yen, 100 points, 3 bronze treasure chests]
[C-level rating: 200 million yen, 200 points, 3 silver treasure chests]
[Grade B: 400 million yen, 400 points, 3 gold treasure chests]
[Grade A: 800 million yen, 800 points, 3 Dark Gold Treasure Chests]
[S-Rank Rating: 1600 million yen, 1600 points, 3 Diamond Chests]
[SS-Rank Rating: 3200 million yen, 3200 points, 3 Starlight Chests]
[SSS Rank: 6400 million yen, 6400 points, Meteorite Chests *2]
[EX-rank rating: 128 million yen, 12800 points, World-class treasure chest *1]
The pattern is obvious.
For each rating increase, the money and points double, and the treasure chest tier also increases by one level.
However, there are some exceptions for SSS and EX levels.
The number of treasure chests has been reduced to 2 and 1 respectively.
It seems that treasure chests are quite rare.
Xu Yuan estimated that his original evaluation for this mission would have been D.
He believed his performance was quite good.
Whether it was when facing Light Yagami or later when facing unexpected situations.
However, the system does not score solely based on performance.
It is based on a comprehensive evaluation of four indicators: [target strength], [target quantity], [task difficulty], and [execution results].
Light Yagami is a mortal.
There is only one target quantity.
The task is easy.
Although Light Yagami possesses the Death Note, he does not have the Shinigami Eyes.
Even if a high school student has excellent athletic ability and may have even learned martial arts, since his father is a policeman, how could he possibly be his opponent?
He had a gun in his hand.
Therefore, the task difficulty is not that high.
This is a simple beginner task, and the most likely grade is D.
But Light Yagami suddenly turned into a monster.
According to the settlement interface, his strength has increased from mortal to first rank.
The difficulty of the task has suddenly increased significantly.
Because he was just a mortal, and one who hadn't even had combat training.
As a result, the task evaluation was upgraded to B.
Upgrading from D to B grants an additional 300 million yen and 300 points, raising the treasure chest's tier from Bronze to Gold.
The increase was considerable.
It can only be said that fortune and misfortune are intertwined.
Although they encountered danger, the rewards also increased.
In addition...
A three-foot sword appeared in Xu Yuan's hand.
The scabbard was entirely black, seemingly crafted from ebony.
The sword guard is somewhat peculiar, not in the traditional style, but rather in the shape of a yin-yang symbol.
After examining it for a moment, Xu Yuan slowly drew his longsword.
In an instant, a cold light shone everywhere, as if a bright moon had risen in the alley.
Xu Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly and stared intently.
This is a long, narrow, straight-bladed sword, resembling a Han dynasty sword.
The sword is bluish-gray with a straight spine.
The blade is extremely thin, giving it a unique translucent texture.
"Is this sword the extra reward?"

Characteristic: Energy Adaptive (can adapt to the energy of any attribute and unleash 100% of its power)
Durability: 100/100

--------------
In addition to the basic rewards of "400 million yen, 400 points, and 3 gold treasure chests" that are the base rewards for a B-level rating, the final rewards also include 2 silver treasure chests and a sword.
[Silver Treasure Chests are additional rewards depending on the situation; "Mount Tai" is a special reward.]
Xu Yuan gently brushed his fingers across the sword.
His gaze fell upon the evaluation of Mount Tai.
"Nature's creation bestows its most exquisite beauty, dividing day and night with yin and yang."
The sense of boundary described in Du Fu's poem reminded him of his own talent.
--------------
[Affinity between Reality and Illusion]
Talent Quality: SS
Talent Description: In the rift between "illusion" and "reality", you listen to the lost echoes of the universe.
--------------
Realizing that the fantasy world was infiltrating reality, Xu Yuan suddenly asked, "Am I the chosen one?"
That's right.
"You're the one who brought me through time?"
[That's not the case. The system selected you, with your "Transmigrator" title and "Affinity for Reality" talent, in Universe 77.]
Xu Yuan was taken aback upon hearing this.
What did you say?!
Was I the one who time-traveled here first?!
And then you chose me?!
So how exactly did I travel through time?
